There are protanopes, protanomalopes, deuteranopes, deuteranomalopes,
tritanopes (yes, I've met one), and maskuns. Any color scheme you pick is going
to confuse at least one of the anopes and certainly the maskun. What is
visually distinct to me is blue and pattern, and to the maskun is pattern alone.
